“You can show when and where you were and attach photos”

“Its really helpful you can describe the event and capture the emotion of what happened”

“It gives you confidence. It’s almost like having a witness with you”

The free app makes it easy for you to

file a crime report with the police from your smartphone

The app also helps the police identify repeat and vulnerable victims and support victims of hate crime - features backed by The Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime in London and the Sussex Police and Crime Commissioner. When welcoming the app as mayor, Boris Johnson said it "will help increase reporting even further, boosting confidence, reducing repeat offences and helping victims get the support they need" and new mayor Sadiq Khan continues to back the app.
